  1. Entertainment Weekly
    91
    On Make Another World, Idlewild dare listeners to ignore them with thrashing tracks like the punk/disco mash-up ''No Emotion.''
  2. Drowned In Sound
    70
    Make Another World finds Idlewild balancing their twin loves of volatile angst-rock and vivacious indie-pop neatly and professionally.
  3. Under The Radar
    60
    Make Another World falls off dramatically after the solid first half. [#17, p.91]

    The first essential album of the third millenium! well, essential only if you care about music.

    Easily one of their best albums - tracks like Make Another World make me jump and cry for joy!
  3. Donnie

    Great improvement on Warnings/Promises almost as good as 100 Broken windows, but not quite
  4. Alex
    7
    More like the old Idlewild - not up to the standard of 100 Broken Widows, but a welcome and drastic improvement over Warnings/Promises
